Runoff Rendezvous

The Chesapeake Stormwater Network (CSN) is a small non-profit organization dedicated to promoting more sustainable stormwater management in the Chesapeake Bay. CSN’s two-person team facilitates an interactive network of thousands of stormwater professionals to collaborate, share resources, and advance the science behind our work to restore urban watersheds across the Bay.  This year would have been CSN’s 10^th Stormwater Partner’s Retreat, and while we are disappointed that we won’t be able to gather in-person, we are excited to announce our virtual Retreat alternative: The Runoff Rendezvous.

Below are the descriptions for each of the events scheduled for the Runoff Rendezvous. All panels are FREE and will be held virtually over Zoom webinar.

The kickoff event is an awards ceremony for the BUBBAs on March 10, from 3-5 PM.
